Oh my! Please give your daughter my compliments and applause! That fabric is fabulous and the pattern is perfection in showcasing it. My own taste is simplicity in pattern showcasing fabulous fabrics.

I also note that FLOTUS seems drawn to the same idea. Classic, simple patterns showing a focus on the fabric. Since many of her fabrics are used to make a statement the construction of the garment must not subtract from the fabric.

Yes, I’m a fabric nerd. I don’t spin or weave but I do love to create from lovely handmade/handdyed yarns. During last week’s days of rain (which kept me out of the garden) I finished a sweater that I’m currently calling my masterpiece. It’s from hand painted merino-silk. GMTA - my colors are very similar to those your daughter used. She’s AWESOME!!!
